oso try to do research abit about the character class you about to pick and start tweaking from there. do a bit of mix and match or some wordplay/puns based on the name you found.

for example if u makin a barbarian with a bit of googling you can find out that Bul'Kathos was a great barbarian king in diablo universe. the name is almost similar to the main character of god of war game, Kratos. mix them both and u will end up with Bul'Kratos.

if u play diablo 2 u will know that there are 3 legendary ancient barbarians, Talic, Korlic and Madawc. they are also referenced in D3 barbarian's call of the ancients' skill. made up your story that theres a 4th less popular barbarian with almost similar name. think what rhymes with Talic or Korlic or Madawc. im thinking of the malt beverage Horlicks so name him Horlic. voila!

try to relate to anything you can about the character. the skill, the class, the lore. think of a simple origin story of your character. give him personality. you are playing a role playing game so play a role.

i dun watch anime and football, and my fantasy novel character base is too small.
i can't put gandalf the grey on every character, especially the male wizard dry.gif lansung xde vibe.

ic. try to add suffix or prefix to your main name according to what you play. say if ur name is memphiz and u makin a demon hunter then name him memphiz the hunter or memphiz demonbane or whatever. for wizard, memphiz the white or arcane memphiz. got it?

will do. thanks for the advice. smile.gif

since I lack creativity (bad part of me sad.gif ), always struggle to name a character.

last time when creating character for Dragon Nest, I took nearly half an hour just to think a name for my first char.
last2, just took the name of a shoebox doh.gif
